UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q6P9R2 (Q6P9R2)
Gene Name:
Oxsr1
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Effector serine/threonine-protein kinase component of the WNK-SPAK/OSR1 kinase cascade, which is involved in various processes, such as ion transport, response to hypertonic stress and blood pressure (PubMed:17488636, PubMed:19633012, PubMed:21486947). Specifically recognizes and binds proteins with a RFXV motif (By similarity). Acts downstream of WNK kinases (WNK1, WNK2, WNK3 or WNK4): following activation by WNK kinases, catalyzes phosphorylation of ion cotransporters, such as SLC12A1/NKCC2, SLC12A2/NKCC1, SLC12A3/NCC, SLC12A5/KCC2 or SLC12A6/KCC3, regulating their activity (PubMed:12386165, PubMed:16382158, PubMed:17488636, PubMed:19633012, PubMed:21486947). Mediates regulatory volume increase in response to hyperosmotic stress by catalyzing phosphorylation of ion cotransporters SLC12A1/NKCC2, SLC12A2/NKCC1 and SLC12A6/KCC3 downstream of WNK1 and WNK3 kinases (PubMed:16382158, PubMed:21972418). Phosphorylation of Na-K-Cl cotransporters SLC12A2/NKCC1 and SLC12A2/NKCC1 promote their activation and ion influx; simultaneously, phosphorylation of K-Cl cotransporters SLC12A5/KCC2 and SLC12A6/KCC3 inhibit their activity, blocking ion efflux (PubMed:16382158). Acts as a regulator of NaCl reabsorption in the distal nephron by mediating phosphorylation and activation of the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter SLC12A3/NCC in distal convoluted tubule cells of kidney downstream of WNK4 (PubMed:17488636, PubMed:19633012). Also acts as a regulator of angiogenesis in endothelial cells downstream of WNK1 (PubMed:21972418). Acts as an activator of inward rectifier potassium channels KCNJ2/Kir2.1 and KCNJ4/Kir2.3 downstream of WNK1: recognizes and binds the RXFXV/I variant motif on KCNJ2/Kir2.1 and KCNJ4/Kir2.3 and regulates their localization to the cell membrane without mediating their phosphorylation (By similarity). Phosphorylates RELL1, RELL2, RELT and PAK1 (By similarity). Phosphorylates PLSCR1 in the presence of RELT (By similarity)
